I'm struggling with a bad smell behind my ears, and it just won't go away even after I wash it. It's starting to worry me a bit. Any advice on what might be causing this and how I can get rid of it?

Question

I've been having a lot of itching around my penis and testes lately. Scratching gives me temporary relief, but then it starts itching again. I've tried using Candid lotion, but it hasn't helped at all. I'm really consistent about bathing every day and even use cooling powders, yet the itchiness persists. It's pretty embarrassing because I can't stop myself from scratching in public sometimes. Also, there are visible red scratch marks between my penis and upper thighs. Can you help me figure out what might be going on and what I should do?

Question

My husband has been dealing with some really itchy, red bumps on his inner thighs for about 34 weeks now. He's tried using OTC creams like Monosol GM, but they just keep coming back and are starting to spread to nearby areas. It's super itchy and the red rashes are not going away. Im not sure what to do next, do you have any suggestions?

Question

I've been dealing with itching on both my hands and legs for the past three days, and I'm worried because there's been no improvement despite taking Allegra 180 mg and Defcort 6 mg. I had typhoid about ten days ago. Could this itching be related to that, or is it something else? I'm not sure if I should change my medication or if there's something else I should try. Any ideas on what's going on?
